London: `Gotham`, the highly anticipated DC Comics origins story about a pre-Dark Knight Gotham City, is all set to premiere in the UK this autumn.

Starring Ben McKenzie as Gotham`s Detective (and future Commissioner) James Gordon, the show is one of the most hotly anticipated US TV series of 2014, reportedly.

The series follows Gordon`s rise from police rookie to commissioner as he navigates the corruption and villains of Gotham.
Partnering with police legend Harvey Bullock (Donal Logue), Gordon takes on his biggest ever case at the start of the series - the murder of Thomas and Martha Wayne.
